Officials in New York and Los Angeles on Thursday said they hoped President-elect Donald Trump would not follow through on a campaign promise to withhold federal funds from "sanctuary cities" that shield people who are in the country illegally.

"It is Mayor Garcetti's sincere hope that no president would violate those principles, the very foundation of our nation, by taking punitive action on cities that are simply protecting the well being of residents."

After what 0's DOJ put Sheriff Joe through, Trump's DOJ needs to pay the same attention to these criminal-harboring law breaking "mayors"

When the federal dollars stop rolling in they will change their minds.

So Jan Brewer in AZ can't sign and enforce laws that mirror the Feds, but liberal cities can disregard those very same federal immigration laws.
A fraction of me hoped that Hillary would've won, so that Russia can nuke these two hellholes to smithereens.

Enforcing the law is a most important part of President Trump’s agenda. I think you guys in NYC, and L.A. are idiots playing with fire if you don’t believe he will insist upon doing so.

Obama took to long with the DOJ. Should just have congress pass immigration law on “sanctuary cities” and then arrest those officials who don’t do what Congress said they should do.

Then we will shut them down financially. Go ahead and continue your anti American stance.
To: kevcol
Wow. Just wow.
Stop the funding AND prosecute those enabling the violations of federal law.
